Hakeema Muhammad

Hakeema Muhammad is a 1L PTE student hailing from Inglewood, CA. She is 26 years old, the second to youngest of seven siblings and the first in her family to pursue a law degree. She relocated to Baton Rouge in 2020 to serve as a Client Advocate with the East Baton Rouge Office of the Public Defender and went on to be accepted into Southern University Law Center in 2021. Prosecution, contract, and environmental law are close to her heart with an active interest in legislative policy, and she one day does hope to open a secondary firm providing pro-Bono litigation services to underserved communities. She loves yoga, hiking, cooking, and debate.
